Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““In my opinion, tbe case of Counselman v. Hitchcock, 142 U. S. 547 , 12 Sup. Ct. 195 , 35 L. Ed. 1110 , forecloses any inquiry by this court as to whether or not such an expression' in the bankruptcy law is as broad as the protection guaranteed by the Constitution of the United States. In that case the Supreme Court of the United States held that the general law of the United States, as found in Rev. St. § 860, which, so far as this case is concerned, is identical with the language of the bankruptcy law, was not as broad and effectual for the purpose of securing the liberty of the citizen as the language of the Constitution of the United States, and, it not being a full protection, the witness was not bound to answer the questions set forth in that case.””
